Dallas is better known for its business and
banking instincts than its cultural treasures and must-see attractions - in fact,
Fort Worth gallops fast ahead of it on the cultural radar. Plenty of visitors
come to Dallas and go native: shop during the day, eat and drink and attend
big-time sporting events at night and on weekends. But Big D, a young city, can
certainly entertain visitors for a few days or more: it has its infamous Kennedy
legacy (which it has reluctantly decided to embrace), revitalized state
fairgrounds, and a growing arts scene, plus a handful of surprising parks, and
enjoyable places for the kids.
Dominating
the Dallas skyline is sphere-topped Reunion Tower;
it rises 50 stories, and the dome rotates very slowly (completing a single
rotation in just under an hour).
Southfork
Ranch
The Texas ranch that became internationally
famous in the long-running TV series "Dallas" operates today as both a tourist
attraction and an event/conference facility.
